I can't wait to get this game.

And it's about time the game-buying public realised that Pro Evo >>>>>>>>>> Fifa

They were talking about this game a few weeks ago on Gamezville, and it was sounding pretty awesome.

So now that they have loads more club teams, this is just murdering Fifa so damn badly and I am so damn happy that all them Fifa marks are going to be crying about it

[Colly]

That is superb. Pity its last seasons Prem, but not a big problem, at least its means you can still beat dirty Leeds. I might be a bit wary of accepting my random picks now mind if I get a non-big 3 Dutch team.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

I would imagine that picture of 'heeling' the ball is actually the ball running past the player in a through-ball stylee. Still the game is looking great so far but lets be fair, there's never any doubt.

[BleedMe]

It's been rumoured that the Prem teams will be updated, as will transfers, to match this seasons when Pro Evo 4 is released. It was just a rumour though, but either i way i'm not bothered because i'll have the PC version, and will download a mod.

[King Ellis]

The 3 new teams in the Prem (norwich, Palace, WBA) will replace the relegated ones (leeds, Leicster, Wolves) in PES4. Apparently at the PESLeague finals there was a PES4 beta on show which had an updated Prem.

There should be a demo out next month which you can buy for £1.99 if you pre order from Virgin Megastores. The 1.99 is redeemable from the full cost of the game. It comes out on the 17th of September (Madden and PES4 demo in one day ), I think it will probably be availible in Game too.

Seems to be way more than Pro Evolution 3 again. I mean Pro Evo 3 will be better than Fifa 2005 if you ask me, so just imagine how good Pro Evo 4 is going to be. For anyone who didn't know, the realese date is set for October 22nd at the moment. A demo? I'll just head down there next month then and see if they have it in the Game store, or even better they might have it on there PS2 for you to play in the store. It saves me getting the demo and then sprinting home to play it

Oh, I love my X-Box, Oh I love my X-Box, Oh I love my X-Box. But I don't have X-Box live, yet, yet. I'm gonna get it, how I don't know, but i'm gonna get it.

Game Case:

Looking very nice. For anyone in the UK that doesn't know, the game is out next week on Friday. Not anything new, but here is just some more information from Game.uk.com:

As part of the continual advancement of its best-selling football franchise, Konami of Europe has confirmed that the much anticipated Pro Evolution Soccer 4 will feature a wealth of teams under the official license from their respective leagues.

Pro Evolution Soccer 4's famed realism will be enhanced by the inclusion of clubs under the license from the Dutch, Spanish and Italian leagues. As such, football fans will be able to get to grips with the likes of Ajax, PSV Eindhoven, Feyenord, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Deportivo, Milan, Juventus and Parma. Each team will feature authentically modeled players in their official kits, while everything from player height, skill attributes and shirt sponsors will be fully recreated, adding to Pro Evolution Soccer 4's utter realism. This coincides with other breakthroughs premiering in the new installment, including realistic injuries, and kits getting progressively dirtier as matches progress.

In total, Pro Evolution Soccer 4 will feature 56 sides from three licensed leagues, within its total of 136 available club sides - a huge step forward for the series. Similarly, the game will also feature more than 50 national teams, giving the player control of up to 4,500 of the world's greatest players. These bolster what is already being called the most advanced and realistic football game to date, with new gameplay additions including new free kick and penalty techniques, and moves individual to key, star players.

Other new advancements including a new dribbling system offering more control as players go one-on-one and try to pass opposing players, while crosses and cut-back passes can now be made with more precision. Pro Evolution Soccer 4 will also boast an on-screen referee for the first time, who monitors play and intercedes when tempers get frayed! The referee AI has also been further refined, with advantage being played for minor infringements, while each of the referees available will react instinctively to fouls and the flow of play depending on how strict they are deemed to be.

[public enemy]

Wasen't that referee on last years cover aswell?

[lazy_arse]

Yeah, and the picture seems pretty similar as well.

Its a shame that its only the spanish, dutch and italian teams that are getting licensed. I was really hoping that the english clubs would be done.

[Colly]

Its the exact same photo of Collina as last year. I played the demo that came with OPS2 magazine and this game is going to be shit hot. No more needs to be said.

[Summers]

Best.Game.Ever.

And I haven't even played it yet.

[King Ellis]

Technically it's out now for all you corrupt people out there. For the rest of us though it's a week away.

[Summers]

I hate those corrupt people.

Ah well, a week isn't long to wait.

[lazy_arse]

This week is gonna go by sooooooo slowly. It wasn't until like a week ago that I found out the release date, but now I'm getting very excited.
